Hugging Face Trending Models

Quick Start

Fetch the top trending models:

bash
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

Core Features

Fetch Trending Models

Basic usage:

bash
# Get top 10 trending models
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

# Get top 5 most liked models
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 5 -s likes -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

# Get most downloaded models
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -s downloads -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

Filter by Task

Filter models by specific AI tasks:

bash
# Text generation models
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -t text-generation -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

# Image classification models
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -t image-classification -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

# Translation models
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -t translation -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

Common task filters:

  • text-generation - Large language models
  • image-classification - Vision models
  • image-to-text - Multimodal models
  • translation - Machine translation
  • summarization - Text summarization
  • question-answering - QA models

Filter by Library

Filter by ML framework:

bash
# PyTorch models only
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -l pytorch -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

# TensorFlow models only
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -l tensorflow -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

# JAX models
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -l jax -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

Export to JSON

Save results for further analysis:

bash
# Export to JSON file
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 10 -j trending_models.json -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

# Export with specific filters
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 20 -t text-generation -j text_models.json -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

Proxy Configuration

The script requires an HTTP proxy to access Hugging Face API (network restrictions).

Use the -p flag:

bash
scripts/hf_trends.py -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

For most WSL2 environments with v2rayN:

  • Proxy URL: http://172.28.96.1:10808
  • Or use dynamic IP: http://$(ip route show | grep default | awk '{print $3}'):10808

Command-Line Options

-l--libraryFilter by library (pytorch, tensorflow, jax)None
-j--jsonExport results to JSON fileNone
-p--proxyProxy URL for HTTP requestsNone

Output Format

The script displays models in a structured format:

  • Downloads: Total download count
  • Task: Primary task/pipeline (e.g., text-generation)
  • Library: ML framework (transformers, pytorch, tensorflow)
  • Created/Updated: Date information

Use Cases

Daily Monitoring

Check trending models daily for new releases:

bash
# Create cron job for daily monitoring
0 9 * * * cd /home/ltx/.openclaw/workspace && \
  /home/ltx/.openclaw/workspace/skills/huggingface-trends/scripts/hf_trends.py \
  -n 20 -p http://172.28.96.1:10808 >> /tmp/hf-trends.log 2>&1

Task-Specific Research

Explore popular models for specific AI tasks:

bash
# Research trending text generation models
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 15 -t text-generation -s likes -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

# Find popular image-to-text models
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 15 -t image-to-text -s downloads -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

Framework-Specific Analysis

Compare models by ML framework:

bash
# Compare PyTorch vs TensorFlow popularity
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 20 -l pytorch -j pytorch_models.json -p http://172.28.96.1:10808
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 20 -l tensorflow -j tensorflow_models.json -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

Integration with OpenClaw

Use within OpenClaw sessions:

python
# Fetch trending models programmatically
from skills.huggingface-trends.scripts import hf_trends

fetcher = hf_trends.HuggingFaceTrends(proxy="http://172.28.96.1:10808")
models = fetcher.fetch_trending_models(limit=10)

# Format for display
output = fetcher.format_models(models)
print(output)

Troubleshooting

Network Errors

Problem: "Network is unreachable" or connection errors

Solution: Ensure proxy is specified with -p flag:

bash
scripts/hf_trends.py -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

Check if v2rayN proxy is running on Windows.

Empty Results

Problem: "No models found"

Solution: Try different filters or increase limit:

bash
scripts/hf_trends.py -n 50 -p http://172.28.96.1:10808

Dependencies Missing

Problem: "requests package not installed"

Solution: Install required dependencies:

bash
pip install requests

Technical Notes

  • API Limitation: Hugging Face's public API doesn't provide a dedicated trending endpoint without authentication. The script fetches recent models and sorts by popularity metrics.
  • Proxy Requirement: Due to network restrictions, all requests must go through a proxy. The script supports HTTP proxy configuration.
  • Rate Limits: The public API has rate limits. Avoid making too many requests in quick succession.
  • Data Freshness: Models are fetched from the Hugging Face API. Recent changes may take time to reflect.

Reference

See Hugging Face API Documentation for more details on model metadata and available filters.
